Sunova Credit Union’s roots originated in the 1940s when a group of Manitoba farmers listened to the Farm Radio Forum talk ab ... out concept of a credit union. Soon the group formed the Grassmere Tecumseh Credit Union based on the philosophy of “people helping people”. In 1955, the credit union was allowed to expand into a larger area, and 11 members signed a new charter to form Stonewall Credit Union. It had just $82 in assets, but has since grown into one of rural Manitoba’s most successful credit unions. In 1974, the credit union was renamed as South Interlake Credit Union (SICU). In 2008, SICU was rebranded to the credit union you know today: Sunova, a vibrant, friendly full-service financial institution dedicated to providing outstanding member service. More than 60 years and a few name changes later, we are proud we still stand for one thing — strong relationships with our members. We still believe in people helping people. We’re not here to offer another chequing account just because; we’re here to help our members achieve their financial goals. We are here to support our communities, exceed expectations, and see dreams turn into reality. Our purpose is simple: to be the very best at creating memorable, meaningful, and lasting connections with our customers, our communities, and each other. read more
